In my X-ray crystallography/structural biology lab we still use CRTs from over a decade old Silicon Graphics systems. They are the only displays that can do a 120Hz horizontal scan, which is darn critical when you are looking at protein and drug structures in quad-buffered stereo!<p>Sadly, the CRTs are dying off over time and it gets harder to find replacements that can work as well as they do. There are LCD alternatives, like Zalman, but they never impressed me much :-(
